Thank you so much for your thorough answer! Immediately left my review ??

Great explanation as well. I will for now use the method you suggested and wrap the whole form in a div once I’m done and wait for the release of the update for now. It’s so great to find a plugin that keeps improving!

I will also checkout the hybrid html dropdown. I tried styling in the custom CSS tab that comes with your plugin but no matter which selectors I worked with I couldn’t get my changes to show. But I have the sneaking suspicion that this might just have to do with my global design settings and not with your plugin at all, just thought I’d see if maybe someone had the same issue I had.

Anyways, thanks again, super super helpful ??

I will, but I am very sure that it has nothing to do with the conditional field since I can’t solve my problem even in a form without conditional fields, I just gave you the full example and background info of my form.
The conditional fields don’t actually have to do with it, I did set up a form just to test what I am trying to achieve without any conditions and encountered the same problem. But I will experiment further with the default: option, maybe I will eventually figure it out or just face the fact that it won’t work like I want.

This is the form atm.

The event-choices menu is just a dropdown element in which I added the events manually.
Ideally I would want to populate this dropdown element with the post titles of my custom post type “termine”.

I use conditional logic on this form, so the next step would be: When an event is chosen in the dropdown list, a new conditional group opens (that’s no problem of course) that contains the choices for the dates.

Let’s say, the first event on the list has 3 different dates to chose from. Every date is in a custom field in my custom post type, so every date has it’s own shortcode (e.g. [acf field=”termin1_4153“ post_id=”4153“]). I would want the element (doesn’t matter if it’s dropdown, checkboxes or radio buttons) to pull the custom fields and use the content of each of the fields as an option.

Thank you so much for your help!

Thank you so much for your reply! I will experiment with it a little further – but I was under the impression that default values will only work for text-type inputs? Can I set multiple default values for e.g. the dropdown-type? I am also not sure how to link the post_meta to my specific custom field? Sorry, I think I’m missing something.

As fas as I know there is a special mail tag for displaying the post name in your mail, you can find it here. But, as the site explains, it only works if you put the form directly into your post content.

Hey, sorry if you already saw this, but did you check this part of the FAQ?
I had this problem as well, I guess since you send this mail from your server you shouldn’t let it pretend that it was sent from a different server.
I would suggest you put something like “Homepage Contact <[email protected]>” (or another mail address that belongs to your domain) in the From-Section, then maybe create a subject like “New Contact Request by [your-name] [your-email]” and create a reply-to as explained in the FAQ in the section following the one I linked.
Hope this helps!
